Jeffrey Henderson Smith is a former professor of mathematics at Purdue University in Lafayette, Indiana. He received his Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1981, under the supervision of Daniel Kan, [1] and was promoted to full professor at Purdue in 1999. [2] His primary research interest is algebraic topology; his best-cited work [3] consists of two papers in the Annals of Mathematics on "nilpotence and stable homotopy".
